Provided is a portable hammock style chair. The portable hammock style chair includes a foldable frame and a hammock style seat portion coupled to the foldable frame. The hammock style seat portion includes a seat fabric member and connection members. The seat fabric member may include a front edge and a rear edge, the rear edge shorter in length than the length of the front edge. The elongate connection members couple the hammock style seat portion to the foldable frame to retain the seat fabric member at a position higher than a ground surface. The foldable frame may be moved between a folded position and a useable position. In the folded position, the frame may be held together in a bag or otherwise retained in the folded position in order to improve portability.

Improved methods and systems for operating moveable architectural elements (e.g., furniture) are described. The method includes receiving an indicator of a detection event. The method includes performing a movement of the moveable architectural element from a first position to a second position in response thereto, wherein the second position is selected to reduce an interference of the moveable architectural element with an alleviation system configured to alleviate the detection event. The detection event includes at least one of: fire, carbon monoxide, and smoke. The second position is selected based on a distance of the moveable architectural element from the alleviation system. The second position is selected based on an orientation of the moveable architectural element with respect to the alleviation system. Many other improvements and features are contemplated and described.

The disclosure includes a hammock made of a flexible piece of material whose ends can be gathered into endpoints where the suspension system is attached so that the hammock can be suspended between two points (trees/posts/etc). The hammock is covered with a flexible material (such as mosquito netting/fabric/etc) so that the hammock is enclosed. On one or both sides of the hammock an adapter panel is attached between the canopy and the hammock body.

A vehicle includes a bed that is movable upward from a lowered position where the bed is positioned to receive one or more persons to sleep thereon to a stowed position where at least a portion of the bed is stowed adjacent to a ceiling of the vehicle. The portion of the bed can be at least substantially horizontal and horizontally offset when the bed is in the lowered position and the stowed position. The bed can also be positioned above a seating area in the vehicle and moved upward with one or more screw drive members or one or more straps.

A vehicle includes a slide-out room that moves between a retracted position and an extended position and a bed coupled to the slide-out room. The bed moves vertically between a lowered position where the bed is positioned to receive one or more persons thereon and a raised position where the bed is stowed.

A bed is described having a mattress or mattress, wherein the mattress has at least two rests arranged on two sides of the mattress parallel to each other, the rests being adapted to be arranged on respective lifting mechanisms intended to bring the mattress into a position such that it can be rotated on itself by 180 about a horizontal axis. According to the invention, the rest support is formed by two extendible elements which converge to form a joint with lower ends attached to the frame at a distance, the floor or the ceiling and at whose top a support is formed for the rests.
